How to measure infiniband latency and bandwidth

If you need to test the IB network between 2 nodes look at my
tests on X4-2 Exadata.

I. Measuring Latency

On the 2nd node run the listener program and go to the 1st node:
[root@ed04dbadm02 ~]# ib_read_lat

On the 1st node run the test and see the report:

[root@ed04dbadm01 ~]# ib_read_lat -d mlx4_0 ed04dbadm02
------------------------------------------------------------------
                    RDMA_Read Latency Test
 Number of qps   : 1
 Connection type : RC
 TX depth        : 50
 Mtu             : 2048B
 Link type       : IB
 Outstand reads  : 16
 rdma_cm QPs     : OFF
 Data ex. method : Ethernet
------------------------------------------------------------------
 local address: LID 0x0c QPN 0x0088 PSN 0x41d82e OUT 0x10 RKey 0x1f31e00 VAddr 0x000000021b5000
 remote address: LID 0x0d QPN 0x006e PSN 0x3b5a1e OUT 0x10 RKey 0x2661800 VAddr 0x00000001431000
------------------------------------------------------------------
 #bytes #iterations    t_min[usec]    t_max[usec]  t_typical[usec]
 2       1000          1.77           14.12        1.82  
------------------------------------------------------------------



 

And another run:
[root@ed04dbadm01 ~]# ib_read_lat -a -d mlx4_0 ed04dbadm02
------------------------------------------------------------------
                    RDMA_Read Latency Test

 16      1000          2.33           20.61        2.78  
 32      1000          2.36           16.59        2.87

 256     1000          2.56           20.28        3.16  
 512     1000          2.46           25.53        3.45  
 1024    1000          3.23           30.31        3.75

 Completion with error at client
 Failed status 10: wr_id 1 syndrom 0x88

[root@ed04dbadm01 ~]#


And see the report from 2nd node:

[root@ed04dbadm02 ~]# ib_read_lat
------------------------------------------------------------------
                    RDMA_Read Latency Test
 Number of qps   : 1
 Connection type : RC

-----------------------------------------------------------------

 

II. Bandwidth


Next stage is the bandwidth test.

On 2nd node we run the listener:

[root@ed04dbadm02 ~]# ib_read_bw

And on 1st node we run the test itself:

[root@ed04dbadm01 ~]# ib_read_bw -a -d mlx4_0 ed04dbadm02
------------------------------------------------------------------
